The Way You Live

(album: Ghost Nation - 1989)

In your neigbour's garden the grass is greener
Sweet perfection is only a breath away
Longing for it all your head is filled with wonder
Open your eyes, you could believe.

Won't you tell me why are you waiting?
When you already know it's yours for the taking
Only you can change the way you live
The way you live.

These words are nothing to the ties that bind you
There you go the isolation that lies behind you
As you dream of a world that was lost before you were born
While the light of day remains a mystery.

Won't you tell me why are you waiting?
When you already know it's yours for the taking
Only you can change the way you live
The way you live.

They say in this life there are two fools of a kind
There are those who love and there are those who pay love no mind
Now I'm looking at you and you're looking back at me
And there's nothing in between us but what we both believe.

So won't you tell me, why are you waiting?
When you already know it's yours for the taking
Only you can change the way you live.
The way you live.

So won't you tell me, why are you waiting?
When you already know it's yours for the taking
Only you can change the way you live.
The way you live.
